CUSTOMER REVIEWS
“a significantly smaller footprint than the standard isoflurane cart…Being able to use room air instead of oxygen is a huge bonus – no more monitoring how much oxygen we have left in the tank”
“We like it a lot. We just ordered a second one.”
“the system primes itself, empties itself and uses a bottle of isoflurane rather than the syringe – love this!”
